I'm only 23, think my first game was a Division 3 match against Leyton Orient finished 1-1 in 1997 (got free tickets from football in the community), but it could have been before against Scarborough (my Dad says he took me, but buggered if I can remember it!). I remember my brother (now 18) got a tour of Boothferry Park at the age of 5 for his birthday and managed to get lost; lord knows how.
ok hands up im 48 first Tigers game was in 1976, work abroad far too much to see the mighty Tigers as much as i would like but my brother in law uses my pass when im nnot around so don't get wasted . TUT CTID

Glad to see there are others who were there before the South Stand and after the North.
As a matter of interest, or maybe not, I have the programmes for the very 1st match at Boothferry Park, and the very last match, I use to collect programmes along with autographs. please log in to view this image
Great programmes, I watched City v Darlington in 1949. They beat city 1-0 with an absolute runaway goal, City were camped in their half 99% of the game then Bowyer got the runaway goal . That was the first defeat of that season after winning the first 9 games. I have never liked Darlington since.
My first game was against Forest when Billy Bremner made his debut - 1976 I think. I became a season ticket holder in 1977, the season we were relegated for the first time in eons. Had I had an ounce of sense I would have not renewed the following season and taken up knitting or something. However, being an optimist I have spent the majority of my city supporting years thinking that one day we will play like Barcelona and I want to be there when that happens! Hence the continous renewal of the season ticket. PS - Someone may have to explain to those at the bottom of the table what an "ounce" is
52 so beat OLM at something . Can not remember first match but enjoyed the train journey. Can remeber the NI v Portugal match.When was that at BP .
